HELP!!

nothing to blog about

it’s been over 2 months. i know. i just always want to blog about the same thing. but i can’t. it’s depressing and too personal. no point in being mrs. depresso of the century. so i thought i’d grace you with a quick little update to hold you over for the next few months (or perhaps sooner). that is if anyone even still reads my blog?

November

-had old roomies visit for another roomies wedding (SO FUN!!!!)

-sold our van and the camry :(

-bought a 2003 toyota corolla which is very enjoyable excellent indeed

-had an enjoyable thanksgiving with ry’s fam

December

-got my wisdom teeth out…still recovering

-became a licensed social worker. that’s right. i’m now Jacquie Bedke, LSW. CRAZY!

-started my first social work job. i work at a partial care. i basically teach social skills to children ages 4-8 w/mental health problems (and plenty of other issues). it has been EXHAUSTING and i came home in tears for weeks. but it’s becoming very rewarding. it feels good to be a positive role model for kids who don’t have one.  i heart “my kids”.

-had a great Christmas with ry’s fam. we were spoiled by both our families!!

-celebrated our 3 year anniversary. it’s hard to believe it’s been 3 years. it’s gone by so fast! but it just keeps getting better and better. love you babe!

-oh and work, work, work.

January

-celebrated the new year with some excellent fort and snowman building. cuddled for about 72 hrs straight. it was great!

-work, work, work and work. oh and sleep. and paperwork. fun!

-ry went to vegas for work, or should i say fun??

-decided 95% of the people we know are pregnant.

-been sick about every week. it comes with working with kids i guess. it’s a constant roller coaster of sickness. feeling good monday. by friday i’m on my death bed. recover over the weekend with movies and sleep. repeat.

So to my dear friends, who i’ve so rudely neglected (you know you’re out there)…

i officially have no social life. i wake up, work, do paperwork and lesson planning, spend an hour with the hubby, sleep and repeat the next day. i think of you…i promise. daily. and i wish i would just pick up the phone and call and chat or plan a date, but i admit defeat. i have no energy. barely enough to be up this late. forgive me! and maybe one day (soon, i hope!) we can resume our friendship like normal human beings. as for now, i must be a workaholic. i must.

Love,

Me

Guess What?

I passed with a 90%! I was seriously shocked when I saw how well I did, but I’ll take it. Thanks for all your encouragement and support!

Just FYI – I will be at a craft fair tomorrow {probably today when you read this} selling Scentsy. Come visit me! Here’s the details:

I’m in Rexburg…cramming for my social work exam.

Sorry if I’ve been a horrible friend and not called, texted, emailed, etc. I have 1 thing on my mind and can’t divert.

Wish me luck. I need it. Bad.

Cream Cheese Banana Cupcakes

 

I made these for a treat yesterday and they are DIVINE, if I may say so myself.

Banana Cupcakes

• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1 1/2 cups white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup mashed ripe bananas {I used a little extra}

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Place 24 cupcake liners in muffin tins.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the sour cream and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; stir into the batter. Finally, mix in the mashed banana. Spread evenly into the prepared pan.
3. Bake for approx. 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow cupcakes to cool completely before frosting with the cream cheese frosting.

Cream Cheese Frosting

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
• 1.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until creamy. Mix in the vanilla, then gradually stir in the confectioners' sugar. Store in the refrigerator after use.

Using an icing piper, decorate cupcakes as desired. Sprinkle w/crushed walnuts. Now…partake of the yummy goodness! ENJOY!!

Note: These recipes are my variations/twists from recipes found on allrecipes.com

Halloweenies

Our Halloween Menu

Breakfast - Frankenstein pancakes {aka green pancakes w/chocolate chip faces}

Dinner - Green Slime {aka green homemade mac&cheese} & Mummies/Halloweenies {shown above}

Ry & I have been babysitting his cousins for the last 10 days, so I got to hang out with them for Halloween. Between the festive food, the trunk or treat, the amazing donuts and hanging out with some fun kids…I had a blast! Here are some pics of our trunk or treat festivities at the church:

Thank You Clinique!

While the boys were working hard on the ranch, the girls decided to play! We went to the mall in Twin Falls for a little shopping and spent some time at the clinique counter pampering ourselves with some makeovers & free gifts w/purchase. Pre-makeover we ate at Chili’s. Post-makeover we shopped til we dropped. It was so fun.

Thanks for letting me tag along!!

 

All in a Long Days Work!

Since we’ve been staying with Ryan’s family over the last little while, we were able to help them put up corn. I’ve never done it before so it was a fun experience for me! We picked it from their garden, shucked it, cleaned it, cut it, bagged it, and then froze it. There was SO much corn but the hard work definitely paid off.

The aftermath of the shucking {the calves helped by eating the husks}…   

 

This was only a couple boxes of the remainders of the cut corn. I’m pretty sure we had well over 6. Good times! 

 

The fruits of our labor. This is not even half of what we got. Oh I love homegrown corn!!! {Now let me draw your attention for 10 seconds to the GORGEOUS view out the windows. I heart Oakley, ID}

 

Ryan’s sister, Addie, at the end of the day, expressing how much she hates fun she’s having. Please note: Addie is wearing a Canada shirt. Why? you ask. Well because she loves me, of course!

Reminiscingness…

Ry and I spent some time cleaning out his room @ his parent’s house. This is what we discovered…

My Sexy Eagle Scout

 

My wedding dress wouldn’t do up in the back!

PLEASE tell me you have the same problem?????????

It’s The Good Life…

{This is where we’ve been hiding for the last little while. Go ahead, tell me how jealous you are. I don’t blame you!}

    

You can’t really beat being in the middle of nowhere with the ones you love in an absolutely gorgeous setting. There’s something almost spiritual about it. I can do this for the rest of my life!
